A misanthrope or misanthropist is someone who holds such views or feelings. The word's origin is from the Greek words μῖσος (""misos"", ""hatred"") and ἄνθρωπος (""anthrōpos"", ""man, human"").

In some varieties of polytheism, it was considered possible to inflict punishment on gods by ceasing to worship them. Thus, Hrafnkell, protagonist of the eponymous ""Hrafnkels saga"" set in the 10th century, as his temple to Freyr is burnt and he is enslaved, states that ""I think it is folly to have faith in gods"", never performing another blót (sacrifice), a position described in the sagas as ""goðlauss"", ""godless"".

The idea of misogamy was important in the Christian church during the medieval period as a prerequisite for the celibacy required to occupy the highest positions in the church.

So Chrysippus, like his fellow stoic Antipater, views misogyny negatively, as a disease; a dislike of something that is good. It is this issue of conflicted or alternating emotions that was philosophically contentious to the ancient writers.
